We got it all done today, didn't run into any issues, went nice and smooth. Put a nice drop to it what Shawn was looking for.

We started out with all the goodies.

Then proceeded to remove the front Stut/Spring combo and took off the springs using the wall mounted spring compressor, here's a side-by-side of the front springs

Then re-installed the Strut/Springs and buttoned it all up
